The
ROG G74SX-XA1 is great for gaming, but its hardware is serious
business. Powered by the 2nd generation Intel Core i7-2630QM processor
with 8-way processing capability, the ROG G74SX-XA1 outperforms other
notebooks with massive memory bandwidth for ultra-smooth multitasking
performance. Featuring Intel Turbo Boost 2.0 Technology, processor speed
is automatically adjusted to your needs by accelerating performance for
your task at hand.

With a host of power profiles, this gaming
powerhouse has a built-in overclocking mode via ASUS Power4Gear Hybrid
that activates with a simple push of a button located above the keyboard
that turns up system performance above its default level.

The
ROG G74SX-XA1 features the new NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560M graphics engine
for unprecedented visual performance. With unmatched DirectX 11 support,
experience a totally new class of virtual interaction for more dynamic
gaming.

The ROG G74SX-XA1 also features a massive 750GB
7200RPM hard drive to store your movies, games, and pictures. Plus, the
ROG G74SX-XA1 offers 12GB of DDR3 system memory for incredible
multitasking capability.

Featuring
a 17.3-inch LED-backlit Full HD display, the ROG G74SX-XA1 lets you
enjoy the latest in HD playback for an immersive experience with sharp
images, smooth video transitions, and brilliant clarity. With HDMI
connectivity, turn this gaming powerhouse into your personal media
center by connecting to an external monitor or HDTV and enjoy flawless
1080p HD playback. Pair that up with THX + EAX 5.0 3D gaming audio
technology, and together they make the ROG G74SX-XA1 not only a great
gaming notebook, but also a hub for multimedia entertainment.

Gaming
is something to be enjoyed, so why not be more comfortable for extended
gaming sessions? Fatigue will be a thing of the past, thanks to the ROG
G74SX-XA1's 5° incline keyboard designed to provide a better ergonomic
angle, as well as super comfortable rubber-like palm rests that's easy
on the palm and wrist. There's also more space between the keyboard and
number pad, so it resembles a desktop keyboard.

The harder you
work, the more heat you generate. A computer is no different, and with
the amount of power in the ROG G74SX-XA1, some serious cooling is
needed. A unique venting design pulls air from underneath the notebook,
cooling the system down, and then vents it through the rear, keeping hot
air away from the user and reducing ambient noise for prolonged gaming.

Like
its predecessor, the ROG G74SX-XA1 design was inspired by sharp
polygonal shapes, but this time inspiration came from the US Navy's Sea
Shadow stealth ship and modern day aircraft carriers. Like the stealth
ship, opponents will never know what hit 'em, and like an aircraft
carrier, the ROG G74-XA1 has the firepower to shock and awe the
competition.
